I’ve NEVER Gotten So Many Questions About A Supplement 👀 🤫

Creatine is one of the most researched supplements on the market and a lot of the registered dietitians I trust and respect have had great things to say about it…so I’ve been on the fence about trying it for a while.

💪Although it may be best known for boosting athletic performance, I personally was most interested in the research indicating benefits of creatine on muscle recovery + cognitive function.

I’ll be totally honest here — I think my biggest hesitation in taking it was one many women can relate to. I had heard that it can cause bloating in women – which wasn’t something I wanted to deal with while filming a new program.

SO! After we wrapped our summer workout program last month (🤫), I decided to try it for 30 days and see how I felt.

Here’s what I personally noticed after a month:
✅Improved recovery time after workouts
✅Feeling stronger/like I had more energy during my workouts
✅Reduced brain fog
✅Feeling more rested after sleep/like I got better quality sleep

ABOUT THE BLOATING: Personally I noticed minimal additional “water weight” or bloating for the first 2 weeks on creatine; then things seemed to level out back to normal. The dietitians I talked to also recommended just talking 5 grams daily rather than following a “loading phase” protocol to minimize bloating and I think that worked well!

👇I WANT TO KNOW: what other questions do you have about creatine?

  3. @ally8991 on April 25, 2025 at 10:20 pm

    I was researching this a little too, do you think it’s safe for kids to take?

  4. @katelynn6593 on April 25, 2025 at 10:21 pm

    Do you take creatine everyday even if you don’t workout everyday? 😊

  5. @alvinnniño on April 25, 2025 at 10:21 pm

    How much you are taking? 1 1/2tsp or just 1/2tsp?

  6. @monicasharma8160 on April 25, 2025 at 10:22 pm

    How much ?

  7. @pathtooptimalhealth on April 25, 2025 at 10:22 pm

    Yes they can, look at 51 year old Jen Thompson (132 lbs of power) She weighs about 64kg and benches raw, natural, 315+lbs

  8. @melissavieira3280 on April 25, 2025 at 10:22 pm

    Does anyone know of a creatine that isn’t gritty and actually dissolves??

  9. @m.d.b.6318 on April 25, 2025 at 10:24 pm

    💫Wow! I was hesitant because I thought creatine was for body building but now see its beneficial for general health especially for over 40! TFS!

  10. @SaraSavingSpirits2 on April 25, 2025 at 10:25 pm

    Girl, put it in a protein shake. They are synergistic. Putting it in water is wasting most of its potential.

  11. @kristinebarbaree2697 on April 25, 2025 at 10:25 pm

    I gained 7 lbs immediately . And I became crazy thirsty .

  14. @hischransen8069 on April 25, 2025 at 10:29 pm

    You dont drink creatine in plain water. You need to take it with juice or any fast acting carbohydrate source for it to fully work if muscle building is what you are looking for. You need that insuline spike for it to flood your cells. I personally take it with a teaspoon of raw honey, which in itself has mild anabolic effects.

  15. @alonamortimer9535 on April 25, 2025 at 10:30 pm

    Do you drink in empty stomach?

  16. @melgaldos on April 25, 2025 at 10:31 pm

    Hi! thank you for the video. I was wondering did you experience hair loss?

    With out workouts
    How can it use

  19. @SuperMichelle76 on April 25, 2025 at 10:37 pm

    If you’re not wanting abdominal pain, bloating, fluid retention that makes you feel bad and a creatine that tastes good and dissolved well. Look for the brand Con-Cret HCL

  20. @casperinsight3524 on April 25, 2025 at 10:37 pm

    I’m reading that it clears brain fog and provides more strength and energy.
    Did anyone experience initial bloating or an uncomfortable side effects?
    Thx 4 sharing

  21. @valerie4912 on April 25, 2025 at 10:39 pm

    Helped with neck issues, it used to stiffen like you could not believe!😊

  26. @gregoryfitness on April 25, 2025 at 10:45 pm

    I like that brand of creatine because it doesn’t clump, so it is easy to measure.

  27. @thuyain7517 on April 25, 2025 at 10:46 pm

    Once a day

  28. @ardisprahm3367 on April 25, 2025 at 10:47 pm

  29. @withthemoonxox on April 25, 2025 at 10:48 pm

    Is creatine monohydrate good for lactating/nursing mothers?

  30. @samaralavon on April 25, 2025 at 10:49 pm

    I’m 54, and I took my 1st dose today.

  31. @sheready1111 on April 25, 2025 at 10:52 pm

    Does it make anyone else hungry? Also, did it cause bloating for anyone else? I didn’t use this particular brand.

  32. @doloresneville5940 on April 25, 2025 at 10:52 pm

    What else can this be mixed with? I’m only a beginner, so I’m trying to figure it all out 😊

  33. @heatherbenjamin2551 on April 25, 2025 at 10:55 pm

    Is there a brand that is best?
    I bought a chewable form and will be starting today! I’m excited to see what my future workouts have in store!! 🎉

  34. @lavinejohnson1470 on April 25, 2025 at 10:56 pm

    I take amino acids…is it necessary to do Creatine as well?

  35. @LS-808 on April 25, 2025 at 10:57 pm

    I put flavored water enhancer in mine

  36. @Posi777 on April 25, 2025 at 10:58 pm

    Creatine upsets my stomach and causes bloating and weight gain for me. Did you experience this, and if so, how do you handle this?

  37. @forzayanni9299 on April 25, 2025 at 11:02 pm

    Hello.Is one teaspoon of creatine enough per day?

  38. @yschuler1 on April 25, 2025 at 11:04 pm

    I’ve heard great things about it, but I’ve also heard that it causes hair loss. I don’t know how much truth there is to that, but I hesitate to take it for that reason.

  39. @rebeccahanson9864 on April 25, 2025 at 11:04 pm

    Dis it work after 30 days?

  40. @mamdouhofegypt on April 25, 2025 at 11:04 pm

    Music is super annoying

  41. @mysunnygirl4379 on April 25, 2025 at 11:07 pm

    I’ve just started taking Creatine Monohydrate
    Dad told me he got excruciating kidney stones years ago.. Has anyone else had a bad experience?

  42. @seesee5363 on April 25, 2025 at 11:07 pm

    I’m not going to lie her head big as hell

  43. @lynnerene on April 25, 2025 at 11:07 pm

    I love creatine and take the same brand. It has helped with brain fog, sleep, and workout recovery for me.

  44. @sierravan on April 25, 2025 at 11:07 pm

    I love creatine for strength purposes but it gives me insomnia! I cannot fall asleep when I’m taking it, and I sleep so lightly. I have cycled on and off it to test my theory and every time I take it, the insomnia hits again. Anyone else?

  45. @christinezimmerman6914 on April 25, 2025 at 11:10 pm

    I just started taking creatine couple days ago. I found a big tub at Costco.
    I’m hoping it helps with stiff muscles.

  46. @jazminsolorio7690 on April 25, 2025 at 11:11 pm

    Did you notice any weight gain?

    Also any other vitamins or supplements you would recommend? 34 busy working mom of 2 boys. 4 months postpartum.

  47. @NicM691 on April 25, 2025 at 11:12 pm

    Does it make you fat by retaining water and bloat?????

  48. @JackieJ2009 on April 25, 2025 at 11:13 pm

    Does creatine cause acne? I’ve been taking it
    For
    About a week and notice an increase in breakouts.

  49. @shannonm.4984 on April 25, 2025 at 11:13 pm
